Rolling dice with non-standard minimum rolls

1691987443

Edited 1691987471
Essentially what I'm trying to do is roll dice that don't have a minimum value of 1. E.G 2-10 instead of 1-9, or 4-6 instead of 1-3. Even things like 0-3 if possible. I'm aware that I can roll 1d9+1 but I just want to know if there's anything for this specific type of roll in case I want to add other modifiers to rolls so I can avoid the confusion that might come with it.

For 2-10 you can do 1d10r1. That will reroll any 1s. 
There are also Rollable tables which, unlike the reroll method, can also work for the 0-3. However they do have to be setup for each possible die which may not be feasible and critical success/fails cannot be changed. Otherwise you could nest a roll+offset inside an inline roll. So your rolls could look like this [[ [[d9+1]] +0 [modifier] ]] This does 'hide' the raw roll though so it won't show critical success/fails. Finally there is a Suggestion for custom dice syntax which would handle this easily so consider adding your voice and vote to it.

If you just altering the range, you can add 1, subtract 1, etc. Can you a bit more clear about what you want?
wouldn't 1D9+1 do that without doing any bit twiddling? or [[1D(?{upper limit|10}-1)+1]]
